OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

NOOOOOOOO! I want a call too! I'm greedy and want letters AND calls! Hopefully they'll get their act together and start working as a team so we can hear from them in person! I'm praying there will be a letter waiting for me when I get home from work tomorrow.

Finally got a letter! I'm so exited...he sounds like he's doing great. Not happy about a few "knuckleheads" (his word not mine) that aren't following orders, but overall a very positive letter. He says he's the male (sp) yeoman for DIV 333. Does anyone know what that is?

Received letters today from our son! Happy Day! He seems to be adjusting well and making friends. So glad to hear from him! I don't think he has received any of our letters before he mailed his because he was asking for information that was in my letters. Hope he has gotten them by now... Hope everyone hears from their SR soon!

I just got a call Rocky12. Hope you hear from your loved one too! It was absolutely great to hear my boy's voice. I told him I miss him like crazy and it seems like he's been gone a LOT longer than he has. He laughed and said "I know Mom". Sounded like he was in pretty good spirits too. YAY! Let us know if you get a call so we can celebrate with you :)
